Chapter 539 Death of Society-A Little Thing
When the goblin traces were first discovered, the residents of the town were worried.
Now I suddenly heard that the goblins had been wiped out.
Many residents put down their work at this time and came to join the team welcoming the heroes!
When the players entered the town and looked at the cheering residents on both sides of the road, they suddenly felt a sense of accomplishment.
"This mission is so real!"
"Yes, the mission experience rewards are enough, and there are also welcome easter eggs like this."
"It reminds me of the days when I handed in the mission to get the Dragon Slayer's Roar BUFF, but in comparison, this is much more realistic."
"Yes, I received such a warm welcome after killing a group of goblins. What if I really kill a dragon in the future?"
"..."
The players also started the live broadcast and enjoyed the cheers.
The completion of the mission allowed each of them to gain a lot of experience, taking another step towards the professional level!
The total task reward of two hundred gold coins is divided equally, and everyone can get several.
In the current exploration, as long as you have money, you can easily complete many tasks. Although you don't have much experience, you can't stand simplicity and efficiency!
"But have you collected the breakthrough materials for promotion?"
"I collected an elemental flower in the Warcraft Forest that can be used as a promotion material, but it's still not enough. I don't know how much it costs to buy these things with gold coins."
"I'm afraid I have to go to Dunnuo City to sell it. It's too difficult."
"The attributes haven't reached the standard yet, and you have to consume a wave of attribute experience when you advance, and you have to save it for a long time."
"I hope there will be more missions like this..."
Just when everyone was on the live broadcast and having some exchanges and discussions, suddenly the crowd's cheers became slightly lowered.
The crowd dispersed, and Baron Darnic appeared in front of everyone with the Baroness.
As the lord of Darnic Town, Baron Darnic can be said to be one of the people who cares most about these goblins.
Not to mention the misery of being attacked, even if some of the people in the territory were killed, it would still be a loss.
The population these days is a labor force that can create wealth for him.
Therefore, after someone has made such a contribution, he must have some personal expressions both emotionally and rationally.
And to show one's magnanimity in front of the people, one can accomplish multiple things with one stone.
It was only after Baron Darnic appeared with the Baroness.
Players' live broadcast rooms began to flood the screen.
"It's the Baroness."
"Finally we meet again, it's so sexy."
"The strapless northern hemisphere dress is really amazing."
“Surge into the baron’s castle and steal the baroness!”
"..."
A group of cloud players started swiping the screen over there.
Lu Yi and the others can be considered the elite among players. Knowing that these NPCs are highly anthropomorphic, they naturally won't stare at other people's guts and behave like gentlemen.
"Welcome all heroes to triumph. I didn't expect that when I was still having a headache when I just got the news about the goblins, you have already completed the feat of annihilation. You will always have the friendship of our Darnic town, and I am also ready to help you. Prepare a celebration dinner..."
Baron Darnic said to the players with a smile.
It makes the players’ eyes light up. Being invited to the dinner party should be regarded as completing another mission, right?
This baron is quite good, and he has given me another experience!
Moreover, during the time they came to this world, in order to save money for tasks, they could only symbolically nibble some black bread, but they were reluctant to eat delicious food.
This time I can finally let go of my taste system.
"yue~, what does it smell like? Damn it~"
Hearing this as well, he readjusted his various perceptions and said, "Don't be sour" on the spot.
I always feel that there is an indescribable smell all over my body. No wonder it is so far away from me.
Are you so dirty?
……
A dinner party is being prepared at Baron Danik's Mansion, but many follow-up matters of the goblin extermination are still proceeding in an orderly manner.
First, the goblin's head was sprinkled with lime and sent to Dunno City to claim credit!
Then it is necessary to arrange for the scout cavalry to go to the location of the Goblin lair early the next morning to reconfirm.
After all, it is about the safety of the town. It is impossible for them to just say that they have wiped out everything.
Baron Darnic wrote a new official document and spread it to Dunno City by letter bird. He described the encounter in a statement and specifically marked it with the words 'strong man of the barbarian tribe'.
He said that after the investigation team returns, some analysis will be conducted based on the situation at the scene...
"Oh my God! It's a foul, why is it so delicious?"
"Yeah, how could it be so delicious without technological seasoning!"
“The ingredients are amazing.”
"Silly, this is a game. You can directly adjust the feedback to us. This must be a conspiracy to make us waste money on delicious food! Suck it~"
“I usually can’t bear to eat it, but now I can’t let it go!”
Originally, the player pretended to be a little reserved at the banquet.
But after tasting the delicious food, tasting the fine wine, and feeling the delicacies of this world, they all fell in love and started eating without caring about their image.
Even Wang Yi would praise the ingredients and delicacies of this world, so players naturally lacked resistance.
They all regarded the delicacies at the dinner as a ‘reward’ for their mission.
This made Baron Darnic feel a little embarrassed when he held a dinner party and invited all the squire and wealthy businessmen in the town.
I originally wanted to set up another conversation with these savages, after all, they had someone who could understand the language.
You can even arrange some maids to seduce these hot-blooded savages.
But obviously, because Wang Yi, the body of the heroic spirit, did not design any functions at all, but just to make the corpse realistic and have some decorations, the players were dismissive of the maid attached.
Go away and don't stop us from eating!
There was also a live broadcast going on, which made many cloud players drool while watching it.
"Is it so fragrant? Is it so delicious?"
"I'll go, does that maid want to give you benefits?"
"There is holy light, but I don't know how to use my hands and fingers to increase the touch. The skin must be very slippery."
"Disgusting."
"The first group of players are all elite players, but they are not as dirty as you."
"Can't it be sour?"
"To a certain extent, he is also an elite..."
Compared to other players who are eating Haisai, Bu Bu Ke Se Se has closed all his sense of taste and smell and stood aside numbly.
Can a maid come over and let me try it out? Why don't I have one here?
Anyway, Se Se can't sit alone in a corner of the banquet. No one came up to say hello to him, let alone the maid.
There is a feeling of being alone outside the party, and even outside society.
Is this the death of the society...
Chapter 817
The captain of the personal guard, who was an official knight in the Goblin Cave, looked shocked when he looked at the corpses inside.
The cave was full of goblin corpses, and there was a stench in the air. There were also several different beasts and even monsters gnawing here.
Even when they saw everyone coming in, these beasts only looked up. Some of them let out intimidating growls and then ignored them and started to eat again.
There is so much food here, even different monsters will not fight to death.
There’s so much that I can’t finish it!
A black bear the size of a brown bear, a pack of seven or eight demon wolves, and a dozen wild boars.
Here the original prey and predators began to coexist peacefully.
For beasts and monsters, it is very taboo to be injured in the wild.
Now there are simpler foods right at your mouth, as long as you are separated by enough distance so you don't disturb each other.
Similarly, the team that came to inspect did not disturb these monsters.
Although their furs were valuable, there were so many of them that there was no need to take such a risk.
Now standing in a corner of this cave, it is considered that the group of monsters have accepted their territory as theirs, and no one has come to cause trouble...
"Why do you feel like these goblins were eliminated without any resistance?"
Dali, who came with the mission, lowered his head to inspect the headless corpse of a goblin, and used the stick in his hand to poke at the blood-solidified corpse, with a look of shock on his face.
As an adventurer with a formal knight background and active in the town of Darnic, it was quite normal for Dali to be hired for such a task.
He just wanted to confirm the outcome of the battle, and the town of Darnik was also his hometown, so he naturally came with the team just in case.
Originally, they were prepared to encounter fish that slipped through the net and lone goblins.
But when we got here, there was dead silence!
There is only a feast for beasts and monsters!
"It is true that there was no effective resistance. It seemed that he was killed without the ability to resist. There were traces of magic explosions in the middle. It was definitely not the work of ordinary magic. I am afraid it was a great mage, at least a magician and a martial artist. Heroic big shot! ”
Captain Gong of the Guards was also shocked at this time.
There are only three hero classes in the entire Principality of Keton, and none of them are of the legal system.
Judging from their equipment, conversation and some exchanges, it can be seen that their 'tribe' is indeed very powerful.
The enchantments on weapons and the use of language proficiency prove that they have mages, and they may not be weak.
But I never expected that such a big shot would personally enter such a dirty place.
It was so neat and tidy, the scene was so ‘clean’.
Lord Flame Earl couldn't even come here in person!
Even if Lord Earl personally leads the team, there will be fish that slip through the net.
But in this scene, it can only be said that magic is really a convenient thing...
"The wild beasts have begun to eat the corpses. There is a high probability that the nearby goblins are gone, but we still need to stay vigilant. We need to check here regularly in the future. A mission will definitely be assigned by then. Dali, you guys may be able to Try to take it long term.”
Captain Gong had already made an inference about the situation and at the same time tried to persuade Dali.
"Haha, if the mission is released, I will still take it, and this road does not conflict with the route that the savages take."
Dali laughed and said he would take over the task.
However, he is still not ready to join Baron Danik. He is used to being free on his own, and if he wants to join him, he can go to Dunno City to find someone with more heft...
"Okay, let's go back. This matter must be reported to the Baron. In fact, the power of the savages should not be underestimated. At least one hero level can be regarded as enough to establish a country. Fortunately, their territory In the Warcraft Forest..."
The main reason why the hero level is separated and placed above the professional level is that the combat effectiveness of the heroes in the hero level has undergone a qualitative change.
Even if you are surrounded by a large army, you can still break through if there is no strong person of the same level to restrain you, and the lethality and destructive power produced are strong enough, which is a huge deterrent.
The professional class, even ruthless characters like high-level knights, will inevitably suffer once they are surrounded by a well-trained and well-equipped army. Usually, the professional class acts as the "tip" in the legion attack with the cooperation of a group of elite soldiers. .
There is still a big gap between the AOE destructive power that the Great Knight can clean up in pieces.
Therefore, generally speaking, no matter how well developed a country is and how good its economy is, it still needs at least one hero-level town. If not, it is better to take refuge in a nearby country and form a city-state.
Otherwise, he might be attacked by a great knight on a dark and windy night.
According to incomplete statistics, those free city-states that have developed well without the protection of a great knight have a high probability of being attacked by unknown heroes, almost 90%.
Most of the remaining 10% also have reasons of one kind or another.
And although the official mage guarding the mage tower can also have strong defense, it still cannot replace the hero class that can move freely.
Since it is almost certain that there are heroes among the savages, this status is completely different...
In the past, there was not even a professional level person who came out, and the attention he received was limited, but now it is completely different!
……
When~when~
Abyss, Enzo Territory, in the blacksmith shop that has become more and more large-scale, at this time, a player is constantly banging a long knife, and the 'Grand Gentleman of Zaun', the current chief enchanter, is standing While watching carefully.
After the knife was formed and put into water to cool down, the great gentleman of Zuan took the refined long knife, touched the lines on it with his hand and sighed
"It still doesn't work. The basic texture is indeed printed on, and I was very careful when forging it, but it still only looks like a product. However, a few areas of the main road are usable. If there are any errors, you can fine-tune it back. If you only keep the improvement of the main trunk, you can Save 30% of the enchanting time..."
Okita Urei, who has the most trivial management duties at the Abyss Mineral Company, was also listening to the analysis of these enchanters.
"As long as it can be improved, in fact we have also seen that it is imperative to earn local currency when credits cannot be used outside, and we have the abyss iron ore and abyss environment of Rich Demon. This is definitely the game setting. Player benefits ”
Okita's eyes flickered, and he had an idea in his mind.
The players who went out earlier had to open up wasteland and could not bring many 'goods' with them. Most of them sold the leather goods they found on the road and some simple enchanted weapons in exchange for the first pot of gold.
This kind of small fight is meaningless. At most, it can only allow individual players to have initial funds.
Originally, I was also troubled by the cargo transportation environment in this rainforest.
But after the airship rode on the face in the last live broadcast, Okita was immediately inspired.
This is the official tip!
Otherwise, why don't you fly in the morning and fly in the evening? Why fly at this time?
It is difficult for us to travel through the rainforest on the ground, so we can also consider airships!
Because the Lu Yi team was originally affiliated with the ‘Abyss Mineral Company’, but it had great autonomy.
Therefore, through Lu Yi's inquiries and inquiries, they also learned about the ownership of the magic airship.
The Calais Federation is across the sea from the Principality of Nott!
This is a map that has not yet been released.
But it doesn’t matter. We can’t get the Calais Federation’s airship, but we can try to make our own magically modified airship.
The Warcraft Forest has animal skins and the like, and the toughness of the wood is also quite good.
Coupled with the reinforcement of enchantments, it should be no problem to transport some wood into the abyss and perform some simple strengthening enchantments under the magic concentration of the abyss.
In terms of structure, wouldn't it be enough to just refer to some modern airship design drawings?
And the most important thing is that there happens to be a 'helium' resource in the abyss!
This should be specially designed by the game side.
The safety factor is much higher than that of hydrogen, and it is also more economical than the 'hot air balloon' mode.
Everything is ready!
Helium is actually the most abundant element in the universe after hydrogen, but it is rare on the earth because hydrogen can be combined with other elements to form compounds and be fixed, but helium is not easy to react and is normally a gas. form exists.
Therefore, exposed helium will float into the universe because it is too light.
But in the environment of the abyss, it is easy to seal this element, which is not rare in the universe.
This is exactly what Okita’s own expertise can determine.
"The Wandering Balloon Project is launched..."
Chapter 818 A Little Thing
The design of the airship is said to be simple and simple, but in fact it is complex and requires consideration of all aspects.
However, there is actually a lot of research on modern airships. The current largest airship, the Skylander, is nearly 100 meters long and ten stories high.
The load capacity also exceeds ten tons.
Just because there are more convenient things like helicopters, the application area of airships on the earth is still relatively narrow.
But this is completely different in the 'game world', because the principles of airships are relatively what can be done now!
When Okita's wandering balloon plan was proposed, it was immediately approved by the current board of directors of Abyss Mineral Company, and everyone began to actively mobilize resources.
Nowadays, foreign currency and credit points cannot be directly converted, which makes many people anxious.
Especially players like Qin Xiang who are accustomed to money-making abilities. Although they are strong enough to break out of the Warcraft Forest with the blessing of the Flame Dog, they are not interested at all.
You don’t have money to go out and be a beggar!
A group of people were crowded in the room, and he felt too embarrassed.
At first he was thinking about using the Flame Dog to organize a caravan.
The Yan dog has rough skin and thick flesh, making it perfect for transporting cattle and horses.
Moreover, the strength of the Flame Dog is here, so I am afraid that no monsters will pay attention when passing through the monster forest.
Qin Xiang has also used his own connections and begun to recruit players like PDD to form the prototype of a caravan.
PDD is now considered a co-anchor of ‘Abyss Mineral Company’.
But he didn't expect that the caravan on his side had just been formed and had not yet started to be used. The magic airship that passed through the town of Darnic in Calais was 'retired'.
This made Qin Xiang couldn't help but look at the sky speechlessly.
However, Okitana's plan was indeed good, and he voted in favor of it.
"Brother Qin, continue to organize your caravan."
In order to appease the founder's sponsor, Okita went directly to the expeditionary camp to continue to persuade him to form a caravan.
"The carrying capacity of the airship is limited, and it is definitely only suitable for some high-value items. However, the main contacts and transactions may still require ground caravans. As the map expands, our caravans can also spread all over the world!"
Okita had already prepared his words, which made Qin Xiang also nodded and said
"Yes, that's what I think. By the way, where's Big Pineapple? His spellcasting ability, if our airship is set up here, it would be best for him to lead the team."
"Well, I told him that he must be responsible for the first airship."
Okita himself has no capital, nor is he as popular as Big Pineapple, so he usually mainly makes various connections, but now he has fully integrated a large team that has received capital injections from many parties.
At present, 'Abyss Mineral Company' is the largest player force in closed beta. Although there are teams in foreign countries such as Fruit, XX, XX, SX Company, etc., there are also teams in China such as Ali who have invested in 'Abyss Mineral Company' and formed The second team.
But they were all temporarily suppressed by the mineral companies that had taken the lead.
The largest number of enchanters is the powerful trump card of the 'Abyss Mineral Company', and it is also their confidence to produce equipment and build airships.
At least before the full public beta, this company, which has Qin Xiang's connections as its core and has received most of the domestic capital injections, will always maintain a clear lead.
It is said that several foreign teams are also discussing partnership matters.
Because after resource advantages can be mobilized, a snowball effect can be formed...
……
Not to mention that players just saw the magic airship in Calais, and they began to consider imitating it and started planning the project.
On the Dunno City side, William also learned about the savages' suppression of goblins in Darnic Town through the Merchant Guild.
"Hmph, maybe it's some kind of cult. I hope you can withstand the investigation!"
As a mage, William should have some resistance to divine authority.
But this time I fell too hard!
Not to mention that none of the original goals were achieved, and even Jin Hu, his best friend, was defeated.
Fortunately, I now have more specific information about the savage, and I have roughly grasped the traces of the 'demon blood warlock'.
This is also a blessing in disguise.
Sure enough, a temporary defeat is nothing, time will tell who the winner is!
After encapsulating the information about the 'Magic Blood Warlock' and the new information about the savages, and then sending it back to the Calais Federation through the Merchant Guild's communication circle, William himself breathed a sigh of relief and regained his confidence.
"A great warlock whose bloodline is in conflict, with the promise of the blood stone in hand, will definitely be able to catch him, and he will definitely give you a big surprise before he leaves!"
After muttering for a while, William changed his clothes to look like an ordinary businessman, hurriedly walked out of the Chamber of Commerce and headed towards the target area.
The airship is about to set off. Count Luke must be serious about asking him to go with him. He must seize the time...
……
The signboard of Weber Tailor is still hanging out and swinging in the wind. It is inconspicuous on this street, but it is definitely a time-honored brand.
Even nobles like to find Master Weber to customize their own gowns, and nobles from other places even come here because of his reputation.
But so many people didn't know that this old man who looked like he might burp at any time would be an amazingly powerful warlock!
It was just that the original blood conflict caused problems with his body, so Gou, who had always been hiding in the city, used the characteristics of Dunno's commercial city to collect materials and try various experiments.
It wasn't until I met a noble man not long ago that I finally solved my problem.
"The days are getting more and more promising..."
Weber finished making the clothes he was working on very elegantly and was in a very happy mood.
Since he generally solved his own problems, he is quite happy every day, and for the first time he has gone to some romantic places for entertainment.
Proving that his sword is not old yet.
"Although the problem of blood conflict has been solved, we can still consider leaving some blood inheritance..."
Just as he elegantly completed the sewing movements in his hands, the bell outside also represented the arrival of a new customer.
After completing one stitch, Weber came to the door and prepared to say welcome words, but soon he raised his white eyebrows.
Another mage, and the other party didn't show any signs of restraint. He should be a high-level mage.
Looking at him with this kind of gaze, he even showed off his own aura. There was no doubt that his vest had fallen off again.
However, after the previous experience, he felt that it didn't matter if he was discovered this time. The problem had been solved and he could even exert his strength in his prime. He had no worries!
"Young man, now that you have found me, I may be able to meet a small condition of yours. If you have anything to say, just tell me."
Weber showed an incomprehensible expression.
I pretended to fail in front of Master Yi at first, but it is impossible to fail every time!
This time the target was different from Master Yi last time. He unleashed all his aura unscrupulously. In terms of the fluctuation and control of his aura, he was not some old guy pretending to be young. He was undoubtedly just a high-level mage.
"Should I call you Master Weber, or 'Demon Blood Warlock'?"
William smiled confidently, he had indeed found the right one!
The opponent himself is a great warlock, and is also good at tailoring and enchanting. If he hides it, there is a high probability that it will still be a tailor shop.
Search by elimination method and check the time, and you can easily find the target.
The difficulty of the intelligence this time was actually to locate the opponent in Dunnuo City. Once confirmed, it would be easier to find.
"The 'Magic Blood Warlock' is in the past, just call me Weber."
Weber's face was indifferent and his attitude was very detached.
"Master Weber, I am from the Calais Federation, and I came here to see you this time because our overseas team accidentally found a blood-melting stone..."
Although William knew that the other party was a great warlock and that he was superior to him in terms of strength, when he knew what the other party needed, he had the expression of an old god.
For warlocks with conflicting bloodlines, the Bloodstone is an irresistible temptation.
He is confident that he can win over any great warlock who has a problem with this promise!
This time we arranged to come here to look for the 'demon blood warlock' because in addition to his strength, he also had strong tailoring and enchanting abilities, and was extremely cost-effective. He was hardly inferior to those chosen warlocks whose skills were perfectly connected!
"Bloodstone?"
Even though Weber had already obtained the solution to the bloodline problem, he couldn't help but still have a look of emotion on his face.
I had been searching hard for this thing back then.
But this thing is too rare, completely priceless.
Occasionally, most of them are bought by peers at high prices.
In the past, he almost followed the news about the blood-melting stone, running wherever there were rumors about its appearance.
However, it is a pity that we missed it every time.
There was even an empire that used this as a threat and wanted him to sign a very harsh soul contract, which he angrily refused, and then came to Dunno City to find his own way to crack it.
Even if the problem has been solved now, it is better than the blood-melting stone solution.
But after hearing the appearance of this thing, he still felt a sigh of relief and recalled the difficult years in the past.
"This thing is indeed useful to me. Tell me, what do you want to do..."
Even though the problem has been largely solved now, Weber still doesn't mind collecting one just in case.
In fact, most of the blood-melting stones are in this state. Even if they are useless, they will be collected by the warlocks and they will hold on to them.
After all, no one is sure whether they will be able to use it in the future.
Weber didn't mind preparing a piece, and he was also a little curious about their purpose.
If you provoke yourself again at this time, then just beat this kid to death...
"We have also heard about your original affairs with the Oss Empire, so it is impossible for our Calais Federation to make similar requests. We only sincerely invite you to join our federation and directly give you a place to enter the Presbyterian Council."
William said sincerely that this condition is indeed quite generous, and it is typical that he really wants to make Weber his 'one of his own'.
Back then, the Os Empire relied on a blood-melting stone to force Weber, who had a blood conflict, to do something.
As a result, this guy ran away without saying a word, and despite the backlash, he wreaked havoc in several cities in the Os Empire. Now he is still wanted by the Os Empire.
It's just that this kind of wanted is only a decoration if it is at a close range. No one will choose to be an enemy of a great warlock for this kind of thing.
Therefore, the Calais Federation will naturally learn its lesson, and instead choose the greatest surefire move of ‘sincerity’.
After hearing William's words, Weber's expression softened a lot.
The Federation of Calais is somewhat sincere, which is not bad.
In fact, he also considered settling in the Calais Federation, but the level of mages there was too high, and it was too easy to be exposed and cause some trouble, so he chose Dunno City.
"The conditions are okay. I'm not a stickler for the past. If we can get the bloodstone first, then there's nothing wrong with signing some simple agreements."
Weber nodded with a smile.
This made William couldn't help but feel happy, and then said with some anxiety
"Of course I can help you apply in advance, but I have encountered some troubles in Dunnuo City, but I will leave with the airship soon..."
Hearing William's words, Weber also chuckled secretly, young man, you do things too deliberately.
He knew that the other party would most likely have some personal troubles and asked him for help.
But it didn't matter, it was indeed this boy who found him, and in Dunnuo City, he didn't have many things to worry about now.
Even against Earl Luke, although the opponent is strong, he is still a weakling in the physical system. Even if he cannot beat him, he can still disgust the opponent before running away.
"It's a small matter. If you have any trouble, tell me and I will help you solve it..."
————
At present, in addition to copying a few electronic pets from reality, relatively reasonable conflicts will still be arranged.
Players have to mention it because of the timeline. After all, it happens simultaneously. In fact, many things that happen simultaneously in the real world have been omitted, such as the continued construction of spacecraft, monitoring of new arrivals in Mars orbit, global production capacity mobilization, etc. Of course, worry about harmony is also one of the reasons. In reality, it is now difficult to avoid a major manufacturing country.
William is actually just a small character who connects the plot. If there is a small BOSS that has been portrayed for a long time, it is normal to want to stay for a while. This kind of supporting role in the plot obviously does not make me reluctant to kill him.
At least from his point of view, he wouldn't think there is anything wrong with connecting nobles, land deeds, assessments, and obtaining mage towers. It's similar to the reality of taking advantage of legal loopholes and saying, "Sue me," but he encountered Luke's sensibility. Some nobles and Wang Yi only overturned when they couldn't afford to offend them. After overturning and not following common sense, there would naturally be some subsequent backlash caused by breaking the default rules.
Personally, I don’t like to make some situations too abrupt. It feels better to be smoother...
Just like popular science, most book friends may not read it, but those who have read it can also find some interesting things after spending some time. This book was published last year, before gpt became popular. I paid attention to it. The retraction Ah San mentioned in the popular science superconductivity was the one who made the fraud last time, and it was before his second fraud, and before the thunderstorm in Nanbang Quan Renting. Coincidence is important, but it also conforms to the original logical operation
